More car tax talk

In today's Washington Post article ("Va. Budget Talks Focus on Cost of Car-Tax Relief," 4/25/04) on the Virginia budget and the car tax, Senator Stolle is quoted as saying this: "Everyone was hoodwinked by the initial phaseout of the car tax. . . . On a very superficial level, the idea of getting rid of the car tax was a great idea. It was a good political opportunity. But on a policy level, on an implementation level, it's been a disaster for the state of Virginia."
